Experimental Pain in Healthy Human Subjects
How do Alpha Oscillations Shape the Perception of Pain? - An EEG-based Neurofeedback Study
Pain is closely linked to alpha oscillations (8 -13 Hz) which are thought to represent a supra-modal, top-down mediated gating mechanism that shapes sensory processing.

Intra- and Inter-individual Differences of Pain
Pain is a highly subjective and variable phenomenon. Different persons perceive objectively identical nociceptive stimuli differently.
- Trial name

Experimental Pain in Healthy Human Subjects
Modulating Pain Using Transcranial Alternating Stimulation (tACS) in Healthy Human Subjects
Pain is a highly complex and subjective phenomenon which results from the dynamic integration of sensory and contextual (i.e. cognitive, emotional, and motivational) processes.
- Trial name
- NCT03805854
- Testing
- 10 Hz tACS of the bilateral somatosensory cortex, 10 Hz tACS of the prefrontal cortex, 80 Hz tACS of the bilateral somatosensory cortex
- Where

Experimental Biomarker Study for Pain Thresholds
The purpose of this study is to characterize the heat pain tolerance threshold (HPTolTr) in primary hyperalgesic skin after topical capsaicin application, and to assess heat pain and mechanical thresholds (eg, pressure pain…
